Is your soldering iron hot enough? What are you using? thats normaly the reason for it not working.

cheers stu, mines a 40w, do i need something better?
Yeah, no wonder your having a few probs. Get one of these - Antex HP80 80W 230V. Only £10.11 from Technobots.co.uk. Will make it alot easier and faster and better connection.
Mr Stu
